    The fix is on

    Hey Op...here's your proof, right? ;-)

    That frickin' reversal of the fumble by Denver was bulleffingcrap. I don't really like that referee analyst whatshisname but he was dead right. The ball was moving just a smidge before his arm was down.
    Lehner's history. He just doesn't know it yet.

    All I know is that if you drank every time Phil Simms says "We talked about it," you'd be drunk in no time at all.

    Every game for years..."we talked about it..."

    San Diego just looks a step less better than Denver in Denver. Good teams do it at home.

    Measure both by 12/14 when Denver goes to San Diego.

    The subsequent drive by Denver was precision. I would say surgery, but it was over in less time than you could do three sutures.

    The saying is '"The fix is in" not on.

    Probably goes back to Horse racing when races were fixed by injecting performance enhancing drugs known as a fix into a horse so he could win the race.

    Not unlike the NFL today.

    It was milliseconds difference.

    To say the fix is in is weird to me.

    It wasn't like it was an Obvious thing.

    I was not EVEN serious. I was poking a bit of fun at Op. It was close, but it should have been upheld. I mean what's the point of having the benefit of replay if the ref isn't going to see that in super slo-mo?
